Global 5000
At the time of the Global 5000’s release, Bombardier called the Global 5000 “the world’s fastest” ultra-long range private jet. It is designed to be slightly smaller and faster than the Global Express, for those that value reliability and speed, without using the extensive range capabilities of the Express. It can fly eight passengers and three crew members 4,800 nautical miles nonstop at a speed of .85 Mach. It is impressive in its speed, cabin size, and reliability. Bombardier was anything but stingy in the design of the Global 5000’s cabin. It usually holds eight passengers, but is able to hold seventeen in a high-density configuration. The cabin measures 37.3 feet long, 8.2 feet wide and 6.2 feet high – five feet shorter than the length of the Global Express. The total cabin volume is 1,881 cubic feet, and even though the cabin is significantly shorter than that of the Global Express, the passengers may not notice. The majority of the space reduction came from the crew rest and galley areas (the over-sized galley of the Global Express was reduced to a full-sized one in the Global 5000). Only ten inches of space was taken from the main passenger area.
